Chapter 262: Task List

"I have no problems." After Unlike Ning Zhuo checked it once, he handed this Dharma Decree scroll to Zhou Zeshen.

Zhou Zeshen looked at it carefully for a long time, then nodded slowly and handed the scroll to the others.

Zheng Jian and Zhou Zhu watched one after another and agreed by nodding.

Next, everyone signed this Dharma Decree contract in turn.

Zhu Xuanji put away the Dharma Decree; next, he still had to arrange for the renovation team members of the four parties to sign it one by one.

This process was controlled by him personally, with Golden Eye talent and Divine Catcher means, to avoid cheating behavior as much as possible.

Zhu Xuanji then instructed: "You four are the leaders of the renovation team; next, please actively strive for various positions in the Molten Xian Gong."

"If possible, try to strive for the Five Elements Artillery Tower. The true culprit who bombarded the top of Fire Persimmon Mountain and triggered the monster tide is still at large."

"If any of you can find relevant clues, I will definitely have a heavy reward!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo accepted the order resolutely, immediately stating that he would definitely do his best to work in this direction, and while defending his home, he would also not let evil spread!

Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately mentioned again: "In my clan, there is a genius cultivator named Ning Xiaohui, who came here very early, entered the Xian Gong, and earned contributions."

"She must have quite a lot of experience in striving for various positions; why not let her teach us her experience."

Zhu Xuanji shook his head: "Currently, she is executing an important task, so don't disturb her."

"And I think, although she has some successful experience, it is actually not very helpful for the next actions."

"Everything next still depends on everyone's own efforts."

After Zhu Xuanji finished instructing, he let everyone withdraw.

After Unlike Ning Zhuo and others left the side hall, they walked on the way back together.

Zhou Zeshen took the initiative to communicate with him: "We are all trial disciples, and the tasks we can come into contact with are far more than outsiders."

"But precisely because there are too many of these projects, we also have the trouble of choosing."

"I believe there must be an optimal choice plan that can allow us to use the least time, spend the least energy, pay the least price, and obtain the most contributions."

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded, agreeing with Zhou Zeshen's view, and said: "I failed to persuade Lord Zhu to let Ning Xiaohui teach us her successful experience, which is unfavorable for us."

"We have just arrived here and lack a lot of information and cognition."

"So I think our first step should be to cast a wide net, comprehensively receive different tasks, and conduct extensive reconnaissance."

"After the results of the reconnaissance, we will unify the calculations, and then get the optimal plan for choosing tasks. Finally, promote this plan."

"Brother Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhou Zeshen laughed loudly and patted Unlike Ning Zhuo on the shoulder: "Communicating with smart people is just easy!"

The plan Unlike Ning Zhuo came up with coincided with his own thoughts.

Seeing that Unlike Ning Zhuo and Zhou Zeshen had already agreed, Zhou Zhu had always followed Zhou Zeshen's lead, so naturally, he wouldn't have any objections.

It just depended on Zheng Jian.

Zheng Jian listened to the discussion between the two and had long made the decision to collaborate.

Before coming, he had been privately instructed by the Zheng family head: try to get along well with the Zhou and Ning families.

Times change.

Because of the mechanical sickle, the Zheng family mistakenly killed a Golden Core true disciple of the Taiqing Palace, so the entire family faced a huge predicament.

Under these circumstances, the Zheng family very much needed the help of outside allies.

Moreover, Zheng Jian also believed from the bottom of his heart that the plan conceived by Zhou Zeshen and Unlike Ning Zhuo was indeed the best.

So on his side, there was no hesitation, and he agreed directly.

But Zheng Jian also mentioned Meng Chong: "Now that the four parties are cooperating, should Meng Chong also be pulled in?"

This proposal made Zhou Zeshen and Unlike Ning Zhuo look at each other.

This time Unlike Ning Zhuo shut his mouth.

Zhou Zeshen mentioned: "In the initial stage, I'm afraid it's not suitable for us to come into contact with the renovation team of the City Lord's Mansion."

"Didn't you see? This time, Lord Zhu Xuanji only summoned our three families; clearly, that contract needed to be signed by all four parties, so why didn't he call Meng Chong in?"

"From this point of view, Lord Zhu Xuanji's thoughts, or rather his inclination, are like this."

Zheng Jian suddenly realized, and hurriedly cupped his hands to thank Zhou Zeshen.

The group walked to the intersection and bid farewell to each other.

The stations of the Ning, Zhou, and Zheng families were not far apart.

Unlike Ning Zhuo looked at the backs of Zheng Jian and the other two as they left and fell into deep thought.

He thought about the current situation: "The three families were originally headed by Zhu Xuanji, but after the Golden Core melee, the Zheng family fell into a predicament, thereby triggering the wait-and-see attitude of the Ning and Zhou families towards Zhu Xuanji."

"The situation has undergone subtle changes; compared to before, the three families are more closely linked."

"Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit." Unlike Ning Zhuo called out softly in his heart.

Molten Xian Gong, Main Hall.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had been secretly paying attention to Unlike Ning Zhuo, and at this moment, hearing him call its name, it couldn't help but secretly grit its teeth.

The more it understood Unlike Ning Zhuo, the more it knew the overall situation and the truth, the deeper the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit's dread of Unlike Ning Zhuo became.

It really didn't want to deal with a little monster like Unlike Ning Zhuo, who was insidious, cunning, deep in the city, and highly disguised, but considering that the threat of Ning Xiaohui was getting closer...

In the end, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit still gritted its teeth, pretended to be weak, and responded to Unlike Ning Zhuo.

"Young Master, you have finally arrived inside the real Xian Gong."

Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned slightly: "Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, your state seems even worse?"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit responded accordingly: "Yes, Young Master."

"The Molten Xian Gong and I are one; it is equivalent to my body. Now, I am suffering from the continuous attacks of the monster tide; every time the Molten Xian Gong is damaged by one point, I will be correspondingly weakened by one point."

"Next, the contact between us may also be interrupted at any time."

Perhaps it had been paying attention to Unlike Ning Zhuo for a long time, and the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had gradually learned to be clever. In this conversation, it laid the groundwork for interrupting contact in the future.

Next, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit talked about the threat of Ning Xiaohui and couldn't help but urge Unlike Ning Zhuo to take action against her.

"I know about this matter." Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned, appearing somewhat embarrassed.

"You must know that it is not so easy to solve Ning Xiaohui. I have to find an opportunity, a proper opportunity to strike."

"But at the moment, I'm afraid the opportunity is quite rare."

Unlike Ning Zhuo explained slightly to the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.

Because, Golden Cores like Zhu Xuanji, just like Unlike Ning Zhuo, would temporarily stay in the Molten Xian Gong and actively resist the monster tide outside the Xian Gong.

If Unlike Ning Zhuo wanted to take action against Ning Xiaohui at this time, it would undoubtedly be jumping under the noses of Golden Core cultivators, and the risk was too great!

In the side hall before, Unlike Ning Zhuo directly probed Zhu Xuanji.

He pretended to ask for Ning Xiaohui to come over and preach her successful experience, but he was actually probing: how much Zhu Xuanji valued Ning Xiaohui in his heart.

The result of the probe was that Zhu Xuanji didn't allow others to contact Ning Xiaohui at all! More accurately, he didn't allow others to contact the History Pavilion at all.

He even isolated Ning Xiaohui from others, without even a chance for daily communication or contact.

Unlike Ning Zhuo knew very well that Zhu Xuanji valued the History Pavilion so much, and valued Ning Xiaohui so much. Under such circumstances, if he rashly took action against Ning Xiaohui, it would very likely cause Zhu Xuanji's full investigation!

On the other hand, Unlike Ning Zhuo also had his own calculations.

He hoped that he could obtain the position of the History Pavilion, and at the same time, he would eliminate Ning Xiaohui!

In this way, he could obtain the precious information recorded in the History Pavilion.

And relying on this position, Unlike Ning Zhuo could easily mislead Zhu Xuanji and indirectly make good use of Zhu Xuanji, this special Golden Core combat power.

If he could reach this level, it would be most beneficial for Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Unlike Ning Zhuo, who had long had a plan, said to the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: "Don't talk about this."

"Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, design the best plan for me. Let me pick out the most suitable one from these numerous tasks. According to this plan, I can obtain more contributions faster and with less effort!"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit turned around on the throne; it really wanted to refuse Unlike Ning Zhuo's request.

But there was no way; the threat of Ning Xiaohui was always like a sharp sword hanging over its head.

According to its position, it had no ability to solve Ning Xiaohui and could only rely on Unlike Ning Zhuo.

In this way, it could only do its best to fulfill the request Unlike Ning Zhuo put forward!

So very quickly, Unlike Ning Zhuo received a piece of information.

He checked it carefully, and the tasks he mainly needed to do were arranged in the information, and more intelligence on the tasks was also recorded in detail.

And this intelligence was something Unlike Ning Zhuo couldn't check with his own contribution token alone.

Speaking of this contribution token, it was something every cultivator who entered the Xian Gong would be granted when they were guided by the treasure light.

Even if it was lost outside the Xian Gong, the cultivator would get a supplement the next time they came in.

Of course, this kind of supplement was not free and would correspondingly deduct some contributions the cultivator had accumulated in the Molten Xian Gong.

After Unlike Ning Zhuo looked at it once, he found that although this plan of his was quite excellent and designed rigorously, it didn't have wide applicability.

Because the tasks he needed to do mostly originated from the three positions he currently held.

Unlike Ning Zhuo had cleared the levels three times, so he currently held three positions: Medical Hall Master, Artillery Tower Master, and Pointing Platform Chief.

These three positions were all second-grade, and the remuneration corresponding to second-grade tasks was very huge.

Others, including all the renovation team members, couldn't see these tasks from their respective contribution tokens at all.

After Unlike Ning Zhuo looked at it a second time, he found the hidden pattern.

His task arrangement was roughly divided into three stages.

The first stage mainly originated from the position of Medical Hall Master. Unlike Ning Zhuo needed to repair some mechanical creations.

These mechanical creations were not just mechanical puppets, but more were some mechanical buildings.

The task source of the second stage was the Pointing Platform Chief.

After Unlike Ning Zhuo possessed this position, he could arrange formations to a certain extent and command many mechanical puppets to be deployed to the battlefield.

The third stage was the Artillery Tower Master.

After Unlike Ning Zhuo checked this information, he felt puzzled and asked the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: "I see that the tasks related to the Artillery Tower Master all have minimum standards for tasks."

"If these minimum standards are not met, my contributions will be deducted; why is this?"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit's expression struggled; it didn't want to tell Unlike Ning Zhuo the answer, and it was thinking: should it slip away now? ===== CHAPTER 263 =====
